To have a good time the method of Episode 100 of the Catholic Tradition
Podcast, right here is the interview that began all of it. Initially
revealed on August 4, 2017, this interview turned out so effectively that
we determined to launch a complete sequence of interviews on Catholic arts
and tradition. The podcast launched a number of months later, on Could 1,
2018.
Catholic composer and pianist Mark Christopher Brandt joined
Thomas Mirus to debate his classical album and suite The
Nightingale, impressed by Hans Christian Andersen’s story “The
Emperor and the Nightingale”. The dialogue was a double delight
because it lined not solely the album itself, but in addition an prolonged
exploration of the non secular themes of Andersen’s traditional fairy
story, particularly what it conveys concerning the true which means of
freedom.
Mark has been a visitor on the Catholic Tradition Podcast twice
since this primary interview. (Since then, too, Thomas has performed on
Mark’s classical album The Butterfly, together with Katherine
Colburn, the cellist whose abilities are so extremely praised within the
Nightingale interview.)
